Training Week

It was time to get back into the swing of things.  Since the hike on Saturday went fairly well, I felt good about being over the bug.  This week I went to the gym four days, alternating between leg work and swimming.  

We went swimming today, and after we got back from the gym we went for a hike in a nearby park.  The ground was pretty muddy from the rain over the last few days. But it felt good to be outside breathing in clean air and being surrounded by nature. There is a creek that runs the length of the trail in the park, and in some areas it got so deep it was almost a river.  

Tomorrow we hike up Saddle Mountain.  It's on the coast so it will be about a 2hr. drive ( a little less), but the forecast is wet and cold.  It was supposed to snow, which I had really hoped would happen, but it looks like it will just be rain.  My only hope is that the wind doesn't blow too hard. 

Stay tuned!
